multi-CLASS flight booking

Hi guys,
I often have to book multy-city flights, for which i comfortably use Kayak, Edreams, etc.
But what if i want to have different classes on my flight? like LHR-SIN-SYD with first leg in biz and second in eco. Or a return flight where i fly LHR-MIA in eco and MIA-LHR in biz.
Do you know any website allowing that? Swiss offers the second option at least...

Many airline websites allow you to do that. With your LHR/MIA example you could use BA, for example, and book different classes for different legs on their website. I'm a little confused about your question, have you actually tried this?

Several years back there used to be several booking sites that allowed mixed class booking - but alas none exist that I know of anymore.

Airline site that allow this may be limited. For example, on a roundtrip, aa.com allows you to select coach one way and first on the other, but if you do a multi-city search, you can only specify one cabin.

BA allows you to select one way economy premium and the other biz, but if you select eco it's only eco. and still, it does not work on a multi city

Incredibly enough, even Alitalia website allows you to choose your class for every leg.

You could always call. I'm assuming you're wanting them all on the same ticket.

Call who? Most of the online booking sites aren't able to combine classes - even if called.

You could get an airline agent to build a multi-city PNR across their own flights and alliance partners. Not going to work for every airline combo. This is really a good reason to use a travel agent,

If your preferred carrier allows holds, you could build it all in one class of service then call in to an agent to modify it.

I've gone through JAL and had them assemble multiple class and multiple airline on a single ticket. They were very good on the phone and actually did help to get the best rate. My most recent one was ENY (Y), JAL (W) KORD - RJAA. JAL (Y) RJTT - VHHH, CPA (W) VHHH - KORD.
